They actually mean what they say with their core values. It was a little cheesy at first, but we discussed them every morning during a meeting and management really worked to make the store work as a cohesive unit. Management also spent quality time with each individual on a regular basis to ensure they enjoyed what they were doing and could make recommendations on what to fix.

Pros

RH's core values of Quality, Service, People, and Innovation is well noticed in the work environment. One value that stands out is quality. Working along side my co-workers, I observed their strive for perfection whether it be as simple as making copies to designing the products. So far, management have encouraged feedback and valued opinions. The culture definitely avoids the cubical lifestyle and promotes self growth.

Cons

There are moments when production and projects are slow but when they're not, be expected to work hard and at times, long hours. RH is a fast pace environment and at times can be challenging. The benefits and pay are improving but not quite on par with some other companies.

Advice to ManagementAdvice

Reading the other reviews, I noticed the discrepancy between HQ and retails. I would suggest rebuilding that relationship to promote success from all fields to improve on sales exponentially. Earning your employees trust and happiness is definitely key. Once achieved, establish programs or events that will cater to the growth of your employees. (i.e. classes, picnics, seasonal events)

No dress code they say "if you would wear it to the gym, don't wear it here!" But you can walk to work through a monsoon and you will still be accepted in to do your job and get paid.Really nice people work there.

Pros

The people! Everyone who works here is awesome! The best group of people around!Everyone really lives the values. It't not like other companies that talk about them but don't live them.The location is amazing. Easy commute and beautiful campus.

The best thing about working for RH by far are the people. Everyone is very passionate about the brand and pushing our company to the next level. The values are a big part of RH culture and you definitely feel that working here. Every day is different and it's a company that moves quickly, but values opinions of everyone, regardless of level. It's exciting to work for a company who isn't following other companies - and who takes risks.

Cons

RH is not super structured - so things can be a little chaotic at times. There are a lot of last minute changes so you need to be able to be very flexible.

Pros

I love working here. The people are wonderful. Outstanding culture, values, and beliefs that associates truly live by. I've received multiple opportunities to expand my role and take on more responsibilities. My leaders support me learning and developing myself. The work space is beautiful and features RH furniture.

Cons

Very fast paced and find out about things very last minute. This obviously works for some and not others. Work life balance and benefits are fine but could be better.
